django-extra-field-validation
Table of Contents
Background
This package aims to provide tools needed to define custom field validation logic which can be used independently or with django forms, test cases, API implementation or any model operation that requires saving data to the database.
This can also be extended by defining check constraints if needed but currently validation will only be handled at the model level.
Installation
pip install django-extra-field-validationUsage
Require all fields

REQUIRED_FIELDS = ['amount'] # Always requires an amount to create the instance.Example

# Conditional field required list of tuples the condition a boolean or a callable.

TODO's
- Support
CONDITIONAL_NON_REQUIRED_TOGGLE_FIELDS - Support
CONDITIONAL_NON_REQUIRED_FIELDS - Move to support class and function based validators that use the instance object this should enable cross field model validation.
